Anyone ever had some of these tires? My brother used to have some on his Explorer, I do remember they were very loud, and looked awesome. I was a little young back then, so I can't remember too well.

These tires are unsung heroes for the budget wheeler. They actually perform well, i know a few people who run them, they worked better than the BFG's i had. The only problem is that i think they only come in sizes up to 31". Yeah, they suck in snow and rain, but so does every other M/T style tire.

Hell yeah they're loud. I had 31"s on my junk for several years. I would not recommend them. Here's why:

*They run small. The new 31"s were a lot shorter than the worn out BFGs that they replaced.
*They are louder than any Super Swamper I've ever heard.
*They ride horribly.
*They are OK in mud, but pretty much suck on the road, in the snow, on rocks, or on hard packed dirt.
*They got chunked and sliced way too easy by rocks, roots, etc.

The two positive aspects about them:

*They're cheap.
*I got a lot of miles out of them (despite the chunks and slices they received off road).


During the last 12 years I've had 4 other sets of tires (all on the same truck) that I could compare them to: BFG A/Ts, Bridgestone A/Ts, old ass Yokohama Super Diggers (all in 31x10.50), and now Super Swampers (in 32x10.50). I would recommend any one of those tires, but not the Enforcers.

Just my $0.02.
